many of the east coast bantered by hurricane sandy. welcome back. >> thank you. >> an extraordinary few days for the election campaign. a week before the election it would all disappear off the news agenda, but obviously, hurricane sandy took over. and my instinct, watching it all, is that president obama gets a lot more air time as the incumbent president in the time of a national disaster and he has seemed to have done a pretty good job, chris christie, mitt romney, he has been out there today, saying what a great job, that has to question good for him, doesn't it? >> we have to see hout cleanup goes, if obama makes a mistake later on. usually in the short run, crisis environment tends to help the incumbent president. and we only have the short run now. if there is fallout it might occur after he were re-elected. i think voters are basing this on the economy. maybe you have 1% of voters out there, undecided. an interesting event. but if romney had it in the cards to win before i'm not sure it would shift things enough against him. >>
